Vehicle model
Saic Gamme Saic - véhicules particuliers
SAIC's passenger cars comprise the sedans and compacts from MG and Roewe, heirs to a long tradition: MG is a historic British brand relaunched under Chinese ownership, while Roewe is a brand created by SAIC for the domestic market, sharing platforms with MG. These passenger cars target an urban and family clientele looking for an affordable, well-equipped vehicle covered by long warranties in export markets. The Shanghai SH760 sedan was a historic milestone for the group. Today, these models are not officially marketed in North America. In terms of tires, the sedans and compacts in the range generally use 15- to 17-inch wheels with standard-profile tires; sportier versions may go up to 18 inches. In Quebec, a set of winter tires is mandatory in the cold season and significantly improves the traction of these front-wheel-drive vehicles.

Tire and wheel compatibility
Les marques de SAIC (MG, Roewe) couvrent surtout des berlines compactes et des VUS urbains et compacts. Ces véhicules utilisent généralement des jantes de 16 à 18 pouces, avec des montes de pneus de profil moyen typiques de ces segments; les modèles plus sportifs ou électriques haut de gamme peuvent monter en 18 pouces ou plus. L'entraxe (bolt pattern) à 5 trous est courant sur les VUS de cette catégorie. Vérifiez toujours la dimension exacte inscrite sur le montant de portière ou la monte d'origine avant l'achat. Au Québec, le pneu d'hiver homologué est obligatoire de décembre à mars: un second train sur jantes dédiées simplifie les changements saisonniers et protège les jantes du sel.
